Learning Outcomes

Knowledge Objectives (K) - The student will:

1. Know that all nations must determine how to use their available human and material resources and that determination will involve choices among perceived/real demands on those resources.
2. Know that scarcity is the relationship that occurs because the unlimited wants exceeds the limited resources available to meet those wants.
3. Know that major events/situations such as wars will affect the resources a nation has available and will influence how those resources are used.
4. Know that distinct populations will seek to have control over the decision making process which affect their lives.
5. Know that groups seeking to fulfill their agendas have a number of alternative methods to achieve those agendas including the use of violent and nonviolent tactics.
6. Know that nations will sometimes consider certain geographic regions, including other nations, as being strategic importance to their interests and will seek to have a preponderance of influence over that region.
7. Know that every society has to establish some fundamental criteria that can be used to justify the allocation of supreme power within that society to certain individual or groups.

History 20 ­ World War One Significance Project

Rating
0.0 stars

During the development of this Unit I wanted to give students a say in how they were
going to be assessed or how they would like to show me their learning in the form of
an ongoing project. We focused on the curriculum outcomes as well as criteria called
“The Big Six” in History 20. “The Big Six” criteria helped us to develop the leading
question as well as all subsequent project items to follow.
The project focuses on the significance of events, items, or persons during the First
World War and their lasting impact on society. Our Big Six focus was Historical
Significance and Evidence.

Rating

Students have been hired to write a chapter on the Great War for the years covering 1914 to 1919 for a high school history book. The publisher, however, has put them on a tight budget for the number of pages and illustrations. Students, taking the roles of historians and authors, must choose only the three most important events of the time. They are responsible for researching the events of the First World War and writing a letter to the textbook publisher outlining and defending their choice of events. Students must use the criteria of historical significance when making their argument.
